You can play it as a 6-voice polysynth, an ensemble of 6 monosynths, or anything inbetween due to its easily configurable voicing architecture.<\/p>\r\n<p>The sound generation is hybrid, combining the warmth and sonic character of a true 4-pole analog filter, with the large array of waveforms offered by digital wavetables, fm and phase modulation. The digital control of the analogue filter and VCA also means a very large palette of modulation possibilities.<\/p>\r\n<p>Three flavors of voicecards are available: two styles of 4-pole filters (SMR4, warm with a soft edge ; and 4P, edgier), and a classic 2-pole multimode filter. This allows you to mix and match several filter types inside the same unit \u2013 for example to play a pad on 5 4-pole voices, and a squelchy bandpass filtered lead on the multimode board.<\/p>\r\n<p>Some of the key features of Ambika include:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>6 voices with individual outputs.<\/li>\r\n<li>2 digital oscillators per voice, with 36 oscillator algorithms\/wavetables.<\/li>\r\n<li>1 sub-oscillator, also configurable as a transient generator.<\/li>\r\n<li>Pre-filter overdrive and bit-crushing effect.<\/li>\r\n<li>Analog 4-pole filter (or 2-pole multimode filter depending on the type of voicecard used) and VCA.<\/li>\r\n<li>3 ADSR envelopes, 3 patch-level LFOs, 1 voice-level LFO.<\/li>\r\n<li>Modulation matrix with 14 slots and 4 modulation modifiers.<\/li>\r\n<li>1 arpeggiator, 1 note sequencer and 2 step sequencers per part.<br>\r\nFlexible mapping of the 6 voices. A single patch with 6 voice-polyphony, 6 independent mono parts, 2 layered patches with 3-voices polyphony,<br>\r\na 3-voice unison bass line on the lower half of the keyboard with a 3-voice unison lead on the upper half\u2026 all are possible!<\/li>\r\n<li>SD-card storage allows the storing of a life-long of patches, programs and multis, along with the history of editing operations for undo\/redo.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/pages\/ambika\/ambika-architecture.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-240\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/pages\/ambika\/ambika-architecture.jpg\" alt=\"ambika synth architechture\" width=\"710\" height=\"472\"><\/a><\/p>\r\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mutable-instruments.net\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>(information from Mutable Instruments website)<\/em><\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=\"p57-page-navigation\"><a href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/my-ambika\/\"> &laquo; my Ambika<\/a> - <a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/my-ambika\/\"> 1 <\/a><div class=\"page-number-active\">2<\/div><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/pcbs-have-arrived\/\"> 3 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/sourcing-parts\/\"> 4 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/new-toys\/\"> 5 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/parts-have-arrived\/\"> 6 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/start-with-the-smr4-voice-card\/\"> 7 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/mobo\/\"> 8 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/screen-and-sd-card-connector-arrive\/\"> 9 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/mobo-continue\/\"> 10 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/mobo-making-progress\/\"> 11 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/ready-for-testing\/\"> 12 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/its-alive\/\"> 13 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/more-parts-arrive-for-some-extra-voice-cards\/\"> 14 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/from-mono-to-poly\/\"> 15 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/finishing\/\"> 16 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/ambika-metal-case-white\/\"> 17 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/oled\/\"> 18 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/sound-and-video\/\"> 19 <\/a><a class=\"page-number\" href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/code\/\"> 20 <\/a> - <a href=\"https:\/\/192.168.1.59\/build\/ambika\/pcbs-have-arrived\/\">PCB&#8217;s have arrived &raquo;<\/a><\/div>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ambika is a multi-voice hybrid synthesizer.
